What we love

About two years ago I started my hunt for my preferred iPhone game controlller. I tried so many different models. For a while, Backbone One was my favorite, but then GameSir G8 Galileo arrived. I got it back in September and I still have no desire to replace it with something else. A few of my favorite perks include a USB-C connection so I don’t have to charge a battery, a full-size feel, Hall effect sticks, and more.
